4L60E tranny I have a 99 3.8 V6 firebird and have been seriously considering doing an LS1 swap for about 6 months now, and i am getting close to finally droppin the cash to do it.
the LS1 i am looking at buying is an 01 with only 14 K miles on it, definatly good there and i think i can get a pretty good deal on it. but all i am getting is just the motor itself... no PCM, no wiring harness, no tranny.
on my v6 i have an A4 and i realize it is the same tranny just with a different bellhousing then the LS1 A4. i have been told i can just swap bellhousings and my tranny with work behind the LS1. i am sure ill have to buy a new converter and new input shaft... any truth to this or should i be looking for an LS1 tranny as well?

Re: 4L60E tranny From what i understand, the V6 is almost the same as the LS1 in terms of strengh. You may have a problem with the ECU, something about 6 solenoid and 5 solenoid in the transmission.
I hope, that helps!
